Brand identity kit · v2.0

The Digital SoLucians
identity.

Brand guidelines, style guide and visual identity in one place: the logo and how it was conceived, its rules, colours, typography, icons, pattern, applications and ready-made files. This page is the source of truth for the website, promo material and every DS venture.

The kit at a glance

The whole identity on one sheet: logo variations, palette, type, the mark's concept and construction, pattern, icons, applications (tote, tee, app icon, social), stationery and tone of voice. Download it as PDF, EPS (vector, for print) or PNG.

Digital SoLucians brand kit sheet

Construction

Drawn on a 145.5 × 100 grid. Three circles define every curve and the gap is always 6 units, both across the S's diagonal cut and at the closest point between D and S. The S is point-symmetric and centred on the D's height. Every corner is rounded with the same 4-unit radius.

  • D: 10-unit stem + half-circle, radius 50
  • S: one circle, radius 40, cut at 45°
  • Gap: 6 units, inside the S and between letters
  • Corners: radius 4 everywhere
Logo construction: D radius 50, S radius 40 cut at 45 degrees, gap 6

Versions & downloads

Use the horizontal logo by default. Use the stacked logo where space is square, and the mark on its own only where the name already appears nearby or space is tight (avatars, favicons, app icons). SVG is best everywhere it's supported.

Colour

Sky, ink and white do most of the work, the colours of the Saint Lucia flag. Gold is a spark: badges, highlights, one detail at a time. For blue text or links on white, use Ocean (Sky is too light to read as text).

Tap a colour to copy its hex code. CMYK values are conversions; check them against a printed proof.

Suggested balance in layouts: Ink 45 · White 30 · Sky 18 · Ocean 4 · Gold 3.

Typography

Two free Google fonts. Outfit is geometric and round like the mark, so it carries headlines and the wordmark. Inter is built for screens and handles everything else.

Both fonts are free under the SIL Open Font License: Outfit and Inter on Google Fonts. In Word or Canva, fall back to Arial if they aren't installed. Never set the wordmark in type; always use the logo file.

Voice

  • Clear over clever. Plain words, short sentences, no jargon.
  • Warm and local. Proudly Saint Lucian, welcoming to everyone.
  • Practical. Say what we'll do and what happens next.
  • Honest. No inflated numbers or promises we can't keep.

Iconography

The same 34 line icons the website uses, ready for promo material: 24 × 24 grid, 1.75 stroke, round caps and joins, so they echo the mark's rounded corners. Use them in Ink, White or Sky, never filled or multicoloured. Click any icon to download it; the zip has Ink, White and Sky versions plus a sprite.

Pattern & slice device

Two graphic devices that come straight from the mark. The pattern repeats the whole mark tone-on-tone with one accent, for backgrounds, packaging and merch. The slice is the S's 45° cut, used as a corner or band on covers, social posts, business cards and stationery.
